I will talk about an upcoming paper on the general structure of entanglement edge modes in emergent noncommutative matrix backgrounds. In particular, I will show that for arbitrary subregions in arbitrary backgrounds the edge mode representation structure precisely contains the information about topology and geometry of the entanglement cut, and this area-law like structure holds to all energies despite nonlocal interactions and UV/IR mixing. There is also an intimate connection to how we think about entanglement in gauge theory tensor networks I can discuss.
